VistasHow to add content to specific column in csv using javascript?
I'm not good at javascript I've tried to search on stackoverflow.com but unable to find any help I'm trying to create CSV where I want to add content below relevant column heading/index, where the column heading/index is array key and column content is value, below is code but it is showing data only in two columns:
function downloadCSV(csvStr) {
CSV = ConvertToCSV(csvStr);
var uri = [
[
'application.csv','data:text/csv;charset=utf-8,' + escape(CSV)
]];
downloadAll(uri)
}
function ConvertToCSV(objArray) {
var array = typeof objArray != 'object' ? JSON.parse(objArray) : objArray;
let str = "";
for (var i = 0; i < array.length; i++) {
var line = '';
for (var index in array[i]) {
if (line != '') line += ''
line += `${index} ,`
line += `${array[i][index]}`
}
str += line + '\n';
}
return str;
}
And below is the array data I have where I want to use First, Street Address as the column heading
0: {First: 'asdkjf,\n', Street Address: 'lasdkfj ,\n', City:
'alsdf,\n', State: 'Alaska,\n', ZIP / Postal Code: 'asl;dfj,\n', …}
1: {First: 'asdkjf,\n', Street Address: 'lasdkfj ,\n', City: 'alsdf,\n', State: 'Alaska,\n', ZIP / Postal Code: 'asl;dfj,\n', …}
This is how I'm getting the result

Consider the following example. This assumes you are receiving JSON Data format.
var myDataArray = [{
"First": "asdkjf",
"Street Address": "lasdkfj",
"City": "alsdf",
"State": "Alaska",
"ZIP / Postal Code": "asl;dfj"
}, {
"First": "asdkjf",
"Street Address": "lasdkfj",
"City": "alsdf",
"State": "Alaska",
"ZIP / Postal Code": "asl;dfj"
}];
function convertToCSV(jsonData) {
var rows = [];
jsonData.forEach(function(obj, i) {
var keys = Object.keys(obj);
keys.forEach(function(key, j) {
rows.push(['"' + key + '"', '"' + obj[key] + '"'].join(","));
});
rows.push('\r\n');
});
return rows.join("\r\n");
}
console.log(convertToCSV(myDataArray));You can make use of many of the Array tools. This helps create the comma separation. arr.join(",") will result in a String of each element of the array, joined by a ,.
This results in the following:
"First","asdkjf"\r\n
"Street Address","lasdkfj"\r\n
"City","alsdf"\r\n
"State","Alaska"\r\n
"ZIP / Postal Code","asl;dfj"\r\n
\r\n
"First","asdkjf"\r\n
"Street Address","lasdkfj"\r\n
"City","alsdf"\r\n
"State","Alaska"\r\b
"ZIP / Postal Code","asl;dfj"\r\n
\r\n
CSV Format is generally:
Cell1,Cell2,Cell3\r\n
Cell4,Cell5,Cell6\r\n
Where each line is terminated with a Carriage Return (\r) and New Line (\n) character at the End of Line. Some Operating systems do not use the Carriage Return. If this is a Windows format, you will want to use both. More complex CSV content may need to quoted, enclosed within double-quote characters.

I made some changes to the answer given by @Twisty because it was again creating only two columns where column one was heading (array key) and two was content (array value) what I needed was to add all headings (array keys) to top row and content (array value) to relevant box.
I know it's less efficient because I used three loops but it was the only choice to me so far!
Here is the code below:
function ConvertToCSV(objArray) {
var jsonData = typeof objArray != 'object' ? JSON.parse(objArray) : objArray;
var rows = [];
let inc = 1;
jsonData.forEach(function(obj, i) {
var keys = Object.keys(obj);
let keyInc = 1;
if (inc === 1) {
keys.forEach(function(key, j) {
if (keyInc === 1) {
rows.push([',"' + key + '"'].join(","));
} else {
rows.push(['"' + key + '"'].join(","));
}
keyInc++
});
rows.push('\n\n');
}
keys.forEach(function(key, j) {
if (obj[key].includes('"')) {
let doubleQuoteValue = obj[key].replaceAll('"', '');
rows.push(['"' + doubleQuoteValue + '"'].join(","));
console.log('double quote',doubleQuoteValue);
} else {
rows.push(['"' + obj[key] + '"'].join(","));
}
console.log(obj[key]);
keyInc++
});
inc++;
rows.push('\n');
});
return rows;
}
